Oakington Manor Primary School

Dear Reception and Nursery Parents 2021

We understand that starting school is a huge milestone for children and parents and we aim to make the transition as smooth as possible in September. To achieve this, we offer a gradual intake programme. Our transition programme has been very well thought through and successful in past years. Our aim is for all children to settle in well, embrace their new environment and to feel happy and secure; ready for learning at school.

We understand that all children are different and have different needs. We will look at each child’s transition on an individual basis and work in partnership with you to ensure that your child is settled and happy at school.

The aim of the Reception Induction Handbook is to answer some questions regarding what to expect and prepare your child for Reception and Nursery at Oakington Manor Primary School. If you have other questions please do not hesitate to contact me, Ms Gordon Acting Deputy Head for Early Years if you have any questions or queries.

You can email me on admin@oakmanor.brent.sch.uk

Our arrangements for the start of the year will be adapted in light of the current circumstances. We will ensure that we keep you informed. Please check our school website regularly to keep up to date with any new developments at school.

We look forward to meeting you and your child in September 2021; were we will build a positive and constructive partnership with you that will benefit both you and your child throughout their school life.

 Ms. Gordon
